Tis the season for special occasions such as Graduation, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Here are a couple of exciting and new techie items that make amazing gifts for celebrating anyone you love.
This first gift has me excited and telling anyone who I talk to about how great it is. For years I have heard comments like, ‘There needs to be a device to help me find my keys.” Well, the time has come and the device couldn’t be cooler. Tile is a small square that attaches to anything that might get lost. These things could be your keys, your diaper bag, your tools, your pocket book, or whatever you choose. That’s the beauty of it! The Tile can attach to anything and be found with just a swipe from your smart phone or tablet.
I swear to you that it works! I am forever loosing my keys. No, I’m not lying. I really lose my keys on a weekly basis. Constantly, I am asking my kids, “Where are my keys? Have you seen them?” And then the process starts where we upend couch cushions and clean out the refrigerator vegetable drawers to find them. Not anymore. Tile has made my life so much easier. I should really get several for other things I loose…like my shoes!
It’s extremely simple to set up and even easier to work. Download the Tile app to your smart phone or tablet. The Tile has bluetooth technology to connect to your phone. Then, anytime you have lost your item, my keys in this situation, you swipe the “find” button on the app. The Tile starts to play a tune to alert you where it is.
Now for the other great part. IF you loose your phone (or tablet) and the application is on, you can press the “e” on the Tile and it will ring your phone. NO LIE! It really works.

The other techie gift item I’d like to introduce you to is the SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick. This little piece of greatness is a bluetooth enabled device that can hold all your information on a removable USB wireless stick.
The Sandisk Connect Wireless Stick is made to store all your information off of a computer, smartphone, tablet or any other wireless device by mobile app. You transfer all the information you wish to store onto the device via mobile app and then you can access it from any device as long as it’s in the bluetooth range.
What does all this mean? You log into the app, say from your smartphone. You can access pictures, files, videos, music, whatever from the app when it is connected by bluetooth to the SanDisk Connect Wireless Stick. This will allow you to free up storage from your computers, tablets and phones without having to use cloud storage or other devices. And because it’s wireless and uses bluetooth technology, the device never has to plug into anything so you can access the material on it.
